T eeth that go bling

Dental Grills, also called Grillz or fronts, have become increasingly popular in the past few years. Grills are decorative covers for the teeth usually made of gold, silver or jewel-encrusted precious metals. Although most grills are removable, some have chosen to permanently adhere them to the teeth. Those who wear grills should be extra careful about dental hygiene.
